Millstone

I used to be such a burning example,

I used to be so original.

I used to care, I was being cared for.

Made sure I showed it to those that I love.

I used to sleep without a single stir,

'Cause I was about my father's work.

Well take me out tonight,

This ship of fools I'm on will sink.

A milestone around my neck,

Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.

I used to pray a God was listening.

I used to make my parents proud.

I was the glue that kept my friends together,

Now they don't talk and we don't go out.

I used to know the name of every person I'd kissed.

Now I made this bed and I can't fall asleep in it.

Well take me out tonight,

This ship of fools I'm on will sink.

A milestone around my neck,

Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.

Throw me that lifeline,

This ship of fools I'm on will sink.

A milestone around my neck

Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.

Never hit the brakes

there's no time to save him,

He just ran out in the street

anybody know his name?

I think I recognize him

Sure as hell paid for that mistake

Woah.

So take me out tonight.

This ship of fools I'm on will sink.

A milestone around my neck.

Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.

To save my life tonight.

This ship of fools I'm on will sink

A milestone around my neck

Be my breath, there's nothing I wouldn't give.
